Enviromission's collossal Solar Tower of Power is a proposed 1000-meter tall tower, and, if it passes through Enviromission's final feasibility phase, it will be the largest manmade structure on Earth.
You can view the promotional video here. The proposed solar structure is awe inspiring, and Enviromission hopes that this huge Austrailian solar facility, capable of powering 200,000 homes, will attract interest in renewable energy in the coming decades.
When completed, the Solar Tower of Power will truly be a technological marvel.
